Have writer's block? Hopefully this resource will help librarians identify publishing and presentation opportunities in library & information science, as well as other related fields. I will include calls for papers, presentations, participation, reviewers, and other relevant notices that I find on the web. If you find anything to be posted, please drop me a note. thanks -- Corey Seeman, University of Michigan(cseeman@umich.edu)

ER&L is seeking to advance the discussion in these following areas with this 2012 Call for Proposals, with detailed descriptions included below:• Managing e-Resources in Libraries• Collection Development and Assessment• Workflow & Organizations• External & User Relationships• Emerging and Future Technologies• Scholarly Communication & Licensing• Library as Publisher

Proposal Evaluation: The committee will evaluate each proposal on the basis of subject matter (including, but not limited to, the issues listed in the topic descriptions), clarity, and timeliness. We will also hold a period of open voting to allow potential attendees to help shape the program. Proposals should be for original work that has not been published. We may request that some presenters combine sessions with complementary subject matter. Proposal Types: ER&L is looking for individual presentations, panels with differing perspectives, and half day, hands-on preconference workshops. When submitting a proposal, choose one proposal type.________________________________________
